Interested in the 2011 Conference?

NDSC Members - You could be featured in the 2011 conference brochure!

At the North Dakota Safety Council, we are already in the planning stages for the 2011 ND Safety & Health Conference! We plan to feature NDSC member companies in the Conference Brochure using member-submitted photos.
 
If you have high-quality photos of your company or employees in a work environment, we'd like to see them. Photos where safety is a top priority would work best. And, photos from any industry will do. To see examples of some of the photos used for the 2010 Brochure, click here. 
 
We'll sort through the photos we receive and choose the top 10 or 15 to be used in our Conference Brochure, on signage, and on other marketing materials for the Conference. The companies whose photos we select will receive credit in the Conference Brochure.
 
Simply send your high quality (300 resolution) electronic photos to Lynae Hanson at lynaeh@ndsc.org by September 8th.
 

Your Input is Needed!

Even though we are in the early planning stages of the 2011 Conference, we need to look forward to the 2012 event. Our conference has rotated between Fargo and Bismarck for the past many years, however, due to continued growth and the desire to make our conference more accessible to all ND residents, we are exploring the possibility of adding another city to our rotation. Grand Forks is one city being considered due to the availability of the Alerus Center. 
 
Since many of you have been attending this conference for several years, we wouldn't want to make a change without your feedback. Please click here to complete a short survey about the location of our annual event. We value your feedback and look forward to your responses!

Don't forget to mark your calendar for the 2011 Conference to be held February 8, 9 and 10, at the Bismarck Civic Center!
 

 

 

Study shows positive approach influences teen drivers to put down cell phone

Adults should emphasize to teens the positive effects of staying off the phone while driving, instead of focusing on the potential negatives, according to findings from a recent study by researchers at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Research Institute.

Researchers studied 5,500 teens and found that positive motivators for teens who said they seldom use cell phones while driving include being able to pay better attention to their driving, being less likely to have a crash and following the law, according to a hospital press release. Teens who said they frequently use cell phones while driving believed refraining from use would result in:

  • Becoming lost or forgetting something
  • Not being able to let others know where they are or when they will arrive
  • Not having their parents be able to reach them           

Findings from the study were determined from the National Young Driver Survey, conducted by the institute's Center for Injury Research and Prevention.

The study was published in the July issue of the journal Accident Analysis and Prevention.
